Not If I Still Hunger (Explicit) is a first-person political testimony that examines hunger not as metaphor, but as a mechanism of power operating at the intersection of human trafficking, labor exploitation, and institutional delay. Written from the lived experience of an immigrant survivor, Samuel Martínez Roque argues that deprivation of food, safety, stability, and recognition is routinely weaponized to discipline vulnerable populations into silence and compliance. Through a sustained critique of waiting, “process,” and forced forgiveness, this episode exposes how bureaucratic language launder violence by recasting harm as procedure and survival as patience. Central to the narrative is Ramon Ontiveros, named not as an anomaly but as an enactment of a broader structural logic in which wage withholding, forced starvation, and retaliation function as tools of control in the context of human trafficking and labor exploitation. Martínez Roque rejects regret and closure as moral obligations imposed on the harmed while conditions of exploitation remain ongoing. Instead, hunger is reframed as historical memory and political refusal, an embodied indictment of systems that demand endurance without repair. By foregrounding voice, certainty, and non-consent, this episode challenges legal and social frameworks that require victims to neutralize their own testimony in order to be believed, arguing that enforced silence is not civility but a continuation of violence by other means.

Content Warning: This episode contains abrupt and explicitly strong language. Listener discretion is advised.

Killed in USA, Part 2 (Explicit) rips the veil off the machinery of American power, revealing a system that thrives on human suffering. Bureaucracy does not just fail—it weaponizes survival, turning it into evidence against the living while absolving itself of responsibility. Through detailed accounts of coerced labor, withheld wages, threats, and systemic indifference, this section exposes how the State and its institutions profit politically, socially, and morally from death, fear, and exploitation. Survival becomes a liability; injustice is rewarded; and the mechanisms of American governance operate like a scandalous enterprise, protecting themselves while ensuring the vulnerable remain invisible. Far from abstract, this is a brutal indictment of a nation where the administration of death is as clean, calculable, and profitable as filling out a form.

Killed in USA reveals the shocking truth the State of Texas doesn’t want you to see. Immigrants are starved, threatened, and forced to endure years of coercion and wage theft, yet their suffering is dismissed because it doesn’t fit bureaucratic checkboxes. In America, even twenty-four consecutive days of documented starvation, coerced labor, and death threats are ignored if the victim survives, because only a corpse can satisfy the state’s definition of a “substantial threat of personal injury or death.” Samuel Martínez Roque exposes how government indifference, legal loopholes, and clerical cruelty protect perpetrators while punishing the living. This is human trafficking and labor exploitation hidden in plain sight, a systemic failure that turns survival into a liability and makes justice nearly impossible. The evidence is clear, the harm undeniable, but the system refuses to act proving that in the United States paperwork can be deadlier than a gun.
